Dual DigiTHERM

Using two thermal head sensors, Dual DigiTHERM is able to boost the swath width to 1240 pixel. With a thermal resolution of 0.005K, the standard temperature range is -40°C to 120°C. The two uncooled microbolometer FPA-detectors deliver brilliant thermal images in high quality. Using a graphical user inferface with real time preview, no additional video system is required. Both featuring rugged metal housings and being part of IGI's Modular Sensor Systems, DigiTHERM and DigiCAM are extremely robust and can be exchanged conveniently and inexpensively during airborne missions. Combined with IGIplan, CCNS4 and AEROcontrol GPS/IMU system, Dual DigiTHERM forms a complete solution for an extremely rapid and automated workflow for the generation of directly georeferenced thermal images.

 

Modular Sensor Concept

Dual DigiTHERM is one part of IGI's Modular Sensor Systems. Its components consist of two thermal cameras, two DigiControl SMUs with hot swap storage unit for up to 36 hours of flying time and an 8 inch TFT touch-screen. Using the same components as DigiCAM and Dual DigiCAM the changeover between the two systems is realised within minutes.
